Hi B.J. Your story about Japan Fund got me thinking about my investment in Mexico Fund. I started my Mexico Fund investment quite a long time ago. It took the crash of the Peso in late 1994 to get me to buy into it as I attempted to bottom fish the price. I think I started at about $22, down from a 52 week high of something near $40 and then proceeded to AIM it all the way down to the low teens. Although not a large portion of my overall portfolio, it's provided its own level of entertainment far in excess of its percentage of value! A profitable account now, it has provided good AIM trading in recent years. The fund managers have called for a special meeting in Sept. to discuss changes to the fund's structure to make it a better representation of Mexico's "globalizing economy." Now I'm not sure exactly what the heck that means, but the fund has been responding well to both the recent elections and this news. Here's what SI's chart for the last three years looks like for MXF......... siliconinvestor.com and here's my own AIM history for the same period of time............ aim-users.com MXF was hard hit in 1998 along with most of Central and South America and essentially all of Asia. The price/share still hasn't fully recovered to those highs. AIM's guidance has provided me with a chance to actually have my account at an all time high value, even so. The advent of foreign and sector funds has added a tremendous new opportunity for AIM users. There's good volatility and diversification which seem to work well with AIM. I would think that Mr. Lichello would enjoy these new devices. Best regards, Tom
